We have millions if illegals working in this country at suppressed wages and paying taxes.. Receiving no benefit. Its a win for employers and taxing districts. As many illegals are Hispanic the fear of any type of amnesty program would add more democratic voters. Something abhorrent to GOP candidate. Others fear guest worker status...but they are working as it is. See point one.
